i'm finally gonna get a makover for my room! not so soon, but i'm alr planning wat i'll get rid of. actually, i'm moving out of my present room and getting a much larger one - my dad's study, to be exact. Lyn's gonna get my room, YY2 is gonna get the sliding door btwn her room and the corridor outside hacked down so she'll have an enlarged rm. my sis has alr done all the measurements and chosen her furniture. and Lyn is currently eyeing my old furniture with eager eyes. she's already planning wat she'll to once i vacate my current rm. will be leaving on 12 June for tioman. looking forward to scuba diving! will be a change frm swimming, which i've been doing everyday since thurs. can u believe it? for the past few days i've been waking up at 6.30am to take a bus to the club for an early morning swim. the renovations ard the pool are finally done and the new building looks great! the entrance even has a large water wall, or watever u call it.
yay going to tioman island in the 3 wk of hols for scuba diving! hurray at least smth to look forward to besides studying. other than tt nth much to say. sent Lyn for her swimming lesson n of course i swam too. tt's the 3rd day in a row. wow. graffiti found in Pompeii: "Admiror, paries, te non cecidisse ruinis, qui tot scriptorum taedia sustineas" (which, in English, simply reads 'I am amazed, wall, tt u haf not fallen in ruins, u who bear the weight of so many boring inscriptions'). why can't graffiti in s'pore haf more meaning than just 'This Luvs That' n telephone numbers? hmm. zzzzzzzzzz......... going off to eat some watermelon
yesterday i cld haf ponned sch. there was basically nth impt to do. i cld haf spent the time more productively at home. i think. anyway went swimming yesterday afternoon. the water was wonderfully cold at first, cos the sun mysteriously disappeared the moment i stepped into the water. surprise, surprise. then when i was leaving i saw this guy cantering at such a speed, he was almost galloping. in fact, i think he really was galloping. so cool. the only time i ever got into a near gallop was when i was on Johnny. or was it Cabriole? anyway, some horse i was riding went speeding off in what was meant to be a canter. unfortunately i had to stop the horse 'cos i wasn't supposed to be almost galloping. just like the time Johnny made a fanstastic jump when he was only supposed to canter over it. i feel like going riding again. anyway on thurs afternoon, i went swimming also, and i saw lots of AC and RJ ppl opposite the SPC in the Police Academy. only then did i rmb tt there was the rugby finals there and then. but i was like, wth, so many ppl there... so i dint go and watch the match. yeah, i noe. i seem to haf nth better to do than swim. but what else can i do? there's no more dance until after June hols, so i need smth to occupy myself (other than studying)... at least i'll be seeing WJ n PN soon, i think. Gosh. Lyn is singing to some Jap song tt my grandmother is listening to. i've nvr even heard the song (which is, frankly, quite tuneless and disgusting) n she alr noes how to sing it. she doesn't even noe japanese! ...does she? ok going off to watch I, Robot now. byee...

yay i luv being lazy. as u can guess, i'm not in sch! i'm sick. sick of having to look at oil tank's face for an hr half. and i now realize i haf nth much to do. going swimming later, hope it doesn't rain. i wish i cld go now. it's not terribly sunny. it's an idea. haha went to sammeow's blog jus now n clicked on this link which i guessed was a joke. so i put in rubbish answers n true enuff... it was v funni tho. i wish i'd written more outrageous answers. last day tmr before hols. i realli shld start studying for CTs, but as usual i'm procrastinating. i bet i'll begin studying only 1 wk before the tests, like i did for preims n Os...
today seemed like a weird day. first of all i left the house later than usual, since there was no flag raising. then in sch, i went to the locker area n it was so crowded. and dark. the GP paper was ok, i guess. altho i had no idea which essay to write and at first i crossed out all of the 12 choices, only to realize tt i wld be handing in a blank sheet of paper. so i decided to do the shortest question in the list. stupid way of choosing, i noe, but wat else can u do if u've got no idea wat to write for every single qn? the compre was ok. my AQ sucked tho. anyway... at last it was over! went back to the lockers and waited till almost everyone had left before helping farah try to break her lock. she brought 2 pliers and andrea n i both attempted to knock the lock into submission. however it stubbornly refused to give and we emerged frm the experience with nth but a dented lock and a possibly faulty locker door. i must learn the art of lock picking n breaking. who knows of a talented thief? lalala...
sucky day. tues running on mon timetable. NJ was doing the same day and coincidentally, mon is also my sis' worst day ever. so it was unlucky for her too. once again, I complain tt PW is a total, absolute waste of time. GP also, but tt's a given. esp wif the lard bucket as our tchr. it was amusing to see everyone's reaction to my hair. i'm pretty shocked abt it myself. it's the shortest my hair has ever been, other than when i was born, but tt's not counted as i was born bald. bald does not equal short hair. haha ladidum. i had frankenberries for breakfast. lyn went out wif my mom to get the camera fixed. costs 250 bucks to repair the lense, which was the thing tt was spoilt. might as well get a new camera, i said, but no one listened.
ohno GP common test on wednesday! i haf a feeling i'm gonna fail it. who'll i blame then? got a haircut. a MAJOR haircut. now whenever I swing my head i dun feel a thing. the last time my hair was this short was when i was in pri 1 or 2. since then i've had long hair. the next time i go for dance Ms Tan will totally FREAK OUT. but my hair grows fast - it'll be long enough to tie a bun in 10 mths time. the hairdresser was saying how often it is tt when ppl who keep long hair decide to get a haircut, they get a realli MAJOR one. like in my case. and my hair is realli troublesome cos it's thick n if i want to cut it, i haf to either cut a bit or a lot, cos if i cut it medium length everyth will just fly out in all directions. which is why i've cut off SO MUCH of my hair. enuff abt my hair. went swimming early this morning, ard 7.30. Nice and cold water! Pool totally empty! Nice weather for a change! btw, i'll be going wif YY2 n my mom in june hols for scuba diving in tioman! yay sounds like gr8 fun. fortunately there's no dance this hols cos the studio's been booked for summer school, if not i wun be able to go scuba diving.
i wish i were back in HK. i suddenly rmbd all the great times i had before i moved here. all the times i cld go for a hike on the many mountains in HK; the wonderfully cool autumns and winters; the terrific food (comparatively, s'pore's food realli sux, in my opinion); the countryside and little villages n farms tt u can hardly ever see here; the public transport (esp the mini buses); even the shopping. i also miss being a BNO (british national overseas), which is so much easier to write on forms than 'Singaporean'. and the passport colour was WAY nicer than the disgusting red. i cant believe i miss HK even tho i've spent more than half my life here in singapore. the moment i turn 21, i'm discarding my singaporean citizenship. goodbye, s'pore, hello, anywhere but singapore. dun ask me why i'm so prejudiced. i dunno either. maybe it's a deeply rooted, hk-born thing. or the fact tt if we had remained in hk, my mom wld haf been able to complete her teaching degree and get even higher pay than she was alr getting (which was already much higher than the salary s'pore schs give). or the fact tt if we hadn't moved, i wld get to see my dad much more often than once (and i mean one or two days, not even a wk) every 2 or 3 mths.
boredom. absolutely nth interesting to do. why can't smth exciting happen - like a sudden tidal wave (altho tt won't affect me where i live, but the death toll will be smth to look forward to), typhoon (if onli i were back in HK, sure to haf typhoons to enjoy n later get tired of), hail, a blizzard (which wld realli be a miracle, seeing how there's not even a single speck of real snow here), avalanche (HAR HAR. frm what, bukit timah hill?) etc. Not onli will the above provide excitement, the population can be controlled by eliminating all the idiots who r brainless enuff to allow themselves to get killed (by going out to watch the tidal wave or enjoy hail without head protection, etc). all tt was purely meaningless rambling because i had nth better to do. today was a typically boring day. lit, chem, bio, math, break, pe. nth eventful. after sch went to pick lyn up frm sch. bought food frm the snack stall auntie who still rmbs me & says her neice is also in RJ and asked whether I knew her, altho she dint tell me her name or anyth. who knows a girl whose aunt sells snacks in SC? saw Florence Tan who still looks the same. I simply CANNOT believe she used to win beauty pageants. NO POSSIBLE WAY. Look at her now! is tt wat becomes of u years after u've won beauty pageants? i really haf to find an old photo of her when she was still beautiful. i've simply run out of things to say. yay long wkend!!!
this afternoon was wonderfully wet. a real and proper downpour. and crazily enuff, i went swimming! cos when it's raining the pool is usually less crowded. anyway it turned out the pool was totally empty, due to everyone else being sane enuff to noe when's a gd time to swim. it's realli fun swimming in the rain - i stood at the bottom of the pool looking up and saw each n every raindrop breaking the water's surface. real cool. tt's why i like swimming in the rain. then Lyn got some Noodles lying ard and i grabbed 3 to float abt on. not real edible noodles, but long sponge-like tubes not unlike floats. no idea abt the weird name. tried to race wif lyn but she cheated, as usual. do you see what i see - too many times before i kept guessing questioning hurray tmr's friday! tgif!! long wkend. today was a lousy day as usual. bio spa in the morning, then chem was boring n i kept nodding off. then sucky GP where we had to do compre which looked like a lit paper, wat wif the qns abt puns and irony etc. mutating ants; cockroach traffic police; insect domination. abominable thoughts.
dint go to sch today cos 'not feeling well'. which was partly true, cos i had a headache. still do, actually. anyway i took advantage of the extra time to do my lit essay. i dreamt of writing an excellent essay but then i took one look at the qn & i was like, how to write an essay based on just lines 85-146? so i lost all interest in the essay (not tt there was any in the first place) and it's lousy. it has gotta be the worst lit essay i've ever written. but i'm gonna hand it up anyway. a hundred bucks wldn't make me rewrite it. then i went to fetch Lyn (8-yr-old sis) frm sch. it's been a rather long time since i've been to SC. it's changed. the primary side, i mean. the PRIME proj. has made visible improvements. the staff rm looks cool, frm where i was anyway. the canteen has got 2 extra stalls now, selling i-dunno-wat. the food is still great. i got lyn to buy me some. i miss the SC food and the prices. who thinks PW is an excellent use of time and ought to be encouraged? seriously, PW is a total waste of time. it's unproductive and most of it is spent talking rot and slacking away. it just gives PW tchrs a job. ugly PW tchrs with long faces (literally) and deformed chins that ought to be hacked away by cosmetic surgery (if tt's possible). who am i referring to? standing still beneath the darkened sky out of the corner of my eye - was that you, passing me by
whew 2.4 is finally over and done with. why issit tt the weather realli seems to hate me alot? the whole day it was nice and windy and cloudy, and only when it was time for my 2.4 did the sun come out in full force. running under the hot sun realli sux. anyway i got my gold. i realli thot this yr i wldn't get a gold, and i just realized tt the only time i got silver was when i was in Pri 4, just started napfa. lucky my gold streak is yet unbroken. only one more yr to go. i hate mondays. one thing tt made it better today was tt GP was a free period again. some GP course or smth. anything not to see his face. only prob was, i dint do much during tt one period. i dint feel like doing chem/math, and dint haf anyth to read & dint feel like playing hearts. such a waste of time. but still, anythings is better than GP with mr. potbelly-tight-shirt. and i still haf a lit essay and bio spa! shld i go to sch tmr? i wonder... having a splitting headache... drinking from a glass bottle is so cool. is it possible to create a higher arch so tt i can point better and go en pointe properly?
dun realli feel like blogging, but oh well... boring wkend. as usual. dint do anyth much except go swimming, altho i still haf lit essay to do. 2.4 run tmr. at 4 pm. hope it's a cloudy day tmr if not i'll die in the heat. i realli shld be starting on the lit essay... i know i left too much massive destruction i feel lazy and cant be bothered to do anything productive. i just realized there's bio SPA on thurs. i must go prepare. but i'm still here. wasting my life away. i wonder how it would feel to touch the body of a man who has been buried in ice and snow for decades. the body wouldn't have rotted, so the skin and flesh would still be there, rite? what does cyanide do to a person before he dies? what will the post mortem show?
NAPFA 5 items todae. quite fun actually - the only thing was tt shuttle run was the 2nd last item & all the way I was worrying abt it, wondering if i wld get even a C. turned out tt I got an A, which makes me wonder whether the distance is shorter than it shld be. or mebbe i've just gotten faster?? & all the rest were ok. to think i spent bio lecture trying to figure out the minimum pts for a Gold - 3Cs, 2Bs, 1A (total 22 pts) or 3Cs and 2Bs (21 pts exactly). now i onli haf 2.4 run on mon left to worri abt. i will not say anyth abt the trigo quiz. i figured out how to do 1b at the last min, but it was too late. lit essay by next wed, & chem tutorial. yuck. went to watch the Ten Tenors perform yesterday at Esplanade. the singing was gd, & there were some funny bits. my sis, yy.2, loved the guys to bits and is currently still raving over them. watever. I open my eyes, I try to see but I'm blinded by the white light
currently waiting for yy.2 to hurry up & get changed so we can finally leave. she takes absolutely ages. yep, my 'premonition' came true (ref. past entry)! eff-ing Lau was absent today again, and the best thing of all is tt today was the one hour & a half GP lesson! it was realli amusing when ms Veera came & told us he wasn't in sch - the whole class just brightened up and started applauding. maybe he has some terminal disease & just had a relapse? (*hope*) then some of us dint noe what to do with the sudden amt of time on our hands. we just stood in the corridor, discussing wat to do & somehow a few of us (me included) began snapping fingers to see who cld make the loudest sound. realli weird. finally we went to canteen & played cards. i finally learnt how to play hearts! thx to clare, who taught us so well tt she ended up being the 'loser' with the most no. of pts! civics was a total bore. the campaign speeches were nth special. i only put one vote for house comm, and i just ticked any random name for house captain. watever. where on earth is my sis?
These words are lovely, dark and deep But I've got promises to keep and miles to go before I sleep So leave a message at the beep. haha i'm gonna fail the lit test (or assignment, watever). lalala... so much bio stuff to do. whose woods these are i think i know. his house is in the village though. he will not see me stopping here to watch his woods fill up with snow. it seems now that most of my life is sleep.
today was a great day. the eff-ing GP tchr dint come to sch! so we dint haf GP. hurray. altho it'd haf been better if he were absent on the 1 hr & a half GP day. why cant we get another GP tchr? i mean, he's so bulging with fats, i bet his arteries r like, absolutely clogged already, so why won't he just do himself and, most importantly, us, a great GREAT favour by dying of a stroke/heart attack/watever? no, forget tt. death wld be a blessing to him. why won't he get life paralysis or smth to tt effect frm a stroke etc? and phew, tmr's lit test is open book! we were told TODAY tt it was close-bk, & i was like, I'm definitely gonna fail. then during PW Andrea was told tt it was gonna be open-bk after all, which is a gr8 relief. not tt i'm gonna do well for it, but still... hmm. talking abt lit, i shld be studying. that would be harsher punishment for parole violators, Stan... ... and... world peace.
another wkend... and it's mother's day tmr! haf my sisters & i got anyth planned? hmm... yep. my dad's flying here all the way from HK tmr afternoon, n my mom noes nth abt it. he'll just be staying for a few hrs, since he has business in malacca tmr evening or smth, but still... she'll be pleasantly surprised. n other things r brewing... i went skydiving i've always wanted to go skydiving. wonder where i can do tt in s'pore? but i think once i'm actually high up there abt to jump, i might start to chicken out. so i'll need smone to just shove me out of the plane. tt'd be fun, i'm sure. who hates me enough to want to push me to my potential death? join the queue. talk to the hand, 'cos the ears aren't listening. i wonder how it wld be to haf frostbitten fingers. i'd like to see someone's fingers (not mine, of course. maybe my number one enemy's fingers, or preferably the entire arm) get frostbite and turn black. i'd enjoy snapping the finger/arm off. hope no one read tt. if not clare & sammeow will say i'm 'morbid' and 'dark' again. not that i'm not. early this morning (5.30 to be exact) i went running! to train for 2.4 run on tues. to make sure my knee will not fail me on tt day. wat if it does? wat if i start running & smwhere in the 4th round my knee betrays me and i collapse and block everyone's path so tt they haf to run around me lying in agony on the track? haha vivid imagination. and of course i went swimming in the afternoon. it was nice and sunny and the water was cold, for a change. and not crowded, for a saturday. there was some polo competition abt to start btwn SPC and a team called the Rebels. dint stay to watch it tho. this june hols we might be going back to the riding place in JB so my sis and I can ride in peace, even go on the trails. haven't been on a trail ride for ages. since i began riding, in fact. s'pore just doesn't haf the space for a proper, enjoyable trail ride. australia, even HK, wld be much more preferable. okok signing out
hmm... i just read my tagboard and realized tt i sound like i'm talking to myself. first there's a today was a lousy day. first 3 hrs of Nair, and then 1 hr and a half of Francis-f**king-L. but Lit was quite funni. Booth read a part of a poem in an Irish accent, which sounded hilarious. i dunno whether an Irish accent actually sounds liddat, but at least it kept me awake for awhile. chem was a bore, as usual. welcome to my life it is a total bore tt consists of school, swimming, dancing and little else. it is such a bore tt i'm abt to go into a monologue (isn't tt wat i've been doing so far?) abt wat's happening rite now: my 8 yr old sis is playing her flute. YY.2 just came in to get some paper for some obscure reason which i've got either the energy or inclination to find out. wait... now they're abt to watch 'my fair lady'. my mom is looking at some photos. my dad is still working in HK (unless he has gone to Alaska to fish, or to Taiwan/m'sia/china on business). my grandmother is also looking at photos. my grandfather is still dead. btw, Clare told me today tt it was morbid of me to say "... my grandfather is dead" (prev entry). if u're reading this, Clare - how cld u say tt!!?? (sense my indignation?) wat if my dear old grandfather died just recently and i'm still in mourning? cldn't u sense my sorrow and grief? which is actually funni, 'cos my granddad passed away WAY before i was born and no way am i grieving for someone whom i don't even noe. but don't tell Clare tt. let her feel SORRY tt she hurt my feelings by telling me it was morbid. hahaha, kidding, kidding. i do haf a morbid sense of humour. i'm a good girl, i am! i think i shall join my sisters watching 'my fair lady'. haven't watched it for ages.
here i am once again. so free, rite? just returned frm yet another dance lesson. today a grand total of 3 ppl (tt means including me) came! fewer ppl = more attn for each student who's present. yay. God knows wat happened to the other 7. so, 'cos of the absence of so many ppl, ms. Tan decided not to teach the pirouette enchainement yet. but i've alr read the notes myself so i noe roughly wat the steps r like. finished learning all the barre stuff alr. i luv the grand battements n coupe fouette raccourci. adage study is not bad either. funni things happened today while we were doing the grand allegro. shall not elaborate. who knows wat i'm talking abt? severe turbulence. three ppl dead. fifty-six injured. human error? technical fault? oh God. an hr & a half of Bio, n 3 periods of GP tmr. i hope i get some sudden sort of sickness so i can skip sch tmr.
i must be v v bored to be writing here again. my sis is watching Ocean's Eleven. my other sis is still in sch. my dad's in hk. my mom is at work. my grandmother is taking a nap. my grandfather is dead. gosh - i'm so bored i'm recounting wat everyone's doing. how pathetic. at least there's dance later this afternoon so i won't be so terribly bored. 98.7 fm keeps playing the same songs over and over again. we're sorry. you've already used 5 skips this listening hour. it's raining. i'm waiting for the temperature to drop. hopefully it will. sm person's coming to observe our lit class this fri. tt reminds me of a tchr who once went to observe my higher chinese class. the observer was an old woman, head of the chinese department. my HCL tchr was also an old woman who was very lenient and spineless, who let us do watever we wanted in class and who was so slack tt she let us postpone a TEST just cos we gave sm lame excuse. anyway the lesson was sooo boring as usual, even the observer fell asleep after the first ten minutes or so! and she dint wake up till the lesson ended. whatever.
today's GP was actually interesting. the first half anyway. Mr. Potbelly-tightshirt asked everyone who dint do the assignment he gave us last wk, to stand up. everyone stood up, altho i'm pretty sure sm ppl did smth. my grp was the best - dint even bring the paper. then he asked us to give our reasons for not doing the stupid assignment and every1 sorta said the same thing abt not having enuff time. i mean, we cldn't tell him the truth, rite? "Um... we cldn't be bothered cos we don't like u and want u fired and we don't give a damn whether u r disappointed or pissed." true, but hardly appropriate. The mediocre teacher tells. The good teacher explains. The superior teacher demonstrates. The great teacher inspires. which category does abovementioned tchr fall into? he doesn't inspire. all he does is give us smth to do and go abt wondering frm window to window, then to the door, then to the corridor and back again. bio test wasn't even a test. fortunately i dint waste my time trying to cram everyth into my head. at least we ended bio early. War does not determine who is right, war determines who is left.
yuck. GP tmr n we're s'posed to write smth for passage A and B, onli i can't for the life of me rmb wat the passages r abt n i dun haf them n besides i dun feel like doing anything for GP. and the PI thing sux. double yuck. i can't stand the PW tchr's face - it's terribly deformed cos her chin is so NOT proportioned to the rest of her face, n her lower jaw sorta juts out. disgusting. PE today v slack. i cant run so i dint do the 3 rounds (yay) and then it was captain's ball in the field which also meant running so i dint do tt either. all i did for pe was stretching. after tt went to canteen for lunch. so i shldn't haf changed into pe uni at all. but then it wld haf meant getting a parent's letter. so... the long wkend wasn't much of a hol at all. sighz. i spent every single day at the pool, except for the times when i had dance. n i dint get much done either. i dun wanna study for bio test, since i haf no idea wat's coming out. my dad was so poor, he unplugged the CLOCKS at night. on sunday i lost my wallet. musta left it in the cab when i went swimming. so i called up the cab company but they did not find a wallet. so i waited. this afternoon after sch i got an sms frm someone who said he had found my wallet n left it with the serangoon NPC. turns out tt person went to my house (cos the add is on my IC), found my grandmother at home, got my hp no frm her, and went all the way back to serangoon (i live at c'wealth cres') to leave my wallet with the police. why cldn't he haf left it wif my grandmother? he claimed he wanted to confirm my identity first. anyway i've got my wallet back! after a detour to Serangoon. If a person suffered from amnesia and then was cured would they rememberthat they forgot? i can't rmb a single thing about Bio. enzymes are globular proteins... wat the hell are globular proteins? lost...
it is terrible swimming in a pool full of WARM water. which is what i did yesterday and friday. the point of my going swimming was so tt i cld cool down and cool off. If you die and you have a broken leg do they take the cast off? another reason why i go swimming so often is cos that's the only time my knee stops hurting. it hurts when i climb stairs, it hurts when i run... but not when i swim. dunno why. tomorrow's Day-After-Labour Day. which makes today Labour Day. who cares abt wat day it is? all i noe is tmr's a sch holiday... yay. Let me hear you say this shit is bananas B-A-N-A-N-A-S has anyone noticed how MM Lee looks like an orangutan? tiny eyes, balding head. all he's missing is golden-brown hairs on his body. i wonder if he likes bananas. if anyone wants to sue me for the above, go ahead. what do i care. |
